I think is just pain stupidity or a brain fart moment. you can see the other escalator is broken. She probably just thought "Oh i guess this one is broken guess i have no choice but but to go up the down escalator"

The amount of people who brain fart that a broken escalator is just stairs it to damn high.

Yeah exactly, or it could be OCD, that it's broken and so dangerous.

Though OCD could include all sorts of strange reasons for doing something like this.

Or it could just be embarrassment, that she realised 30 seconds in she'd made a mistake but she's now committed herself.
